a princess picnic

I admit, I was quite into the royal wedding. I recorded at least 8 hours of coverage on BBCAmerica and all of NBC's coverage. There was no way I was getting up in the middle of the night, but I was so excited to watch, I did get up by 6. 

I got through the good stuff (seeing Kate's dress) before Little Pie woke up and joined me. She thought it was pretty fun (maybe because I let her eat her breakfast on the couch, gasp!). She kept saying, "there's the princess!" and "they are at church" and "I like the wedding". It was fun to have a girly moment with her.

After getting home from ECFE, I made us a picnic lunch so we could continue to watch the rest of the wedding while we ate. The girls thought this was amazing!

Little Pie was a bit more into the spectacle than Little Bird. After we were finished watching, she asked to watch "the wedding" again. 

While people may go back and forth about whether the whole "princess" thing is good or bad to expose young girls to, I just enjoyed being "girly" with my girls and watching what is basically just a very happy occasion. 

Plus, Little Pie didn't really correctly understand what a princess actually is; while looking at one of Daddy's and my wedding pictures, she exclaimed, "another princess!"

Maybe she did really get it...
